1️⃣ Activate the Yeast
In a bowl, mix warm milk, yeast, and 1 tablespoon of sugar.
Let sit for 10 minutes until foamy.
2️⃣ Make the Dough
Add egg, remaining sugar, melted butter, salt, and vanilla.
Gradually mix in flour until a soft dough forms.
3️⃣ Knead & Rise
Knead for 8–10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Cover and let rise in a warm place for 1–1½ hours, until doubled.
4️⃣ Roll & Fill
Roll dough into a rectangle.
Spread butter evenly, then sprinkle brown sugar and cinnamon.
5️⃣ Shape the Rolls
Roll tightly into a log.
Cut into 9–12 rolls and place in a greased baking dish.
6️⃣ Second Rise
Cover and let rise again for 25–30 minutes.
7️⃣ Bake
Bake at 350°F (180°C) for 25–30 minutes, until lightly golden.
8️⃣ Make the Frosting
Beat cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth.
9️⃣ Frost & Serve
Spread frosting over warm rolls so it melts into every layer 🤍
✨ Pro Tip (Extra Gooey!)
Right after baking, pour ¼ cup warm heavy cream over the rolls before frosting.
This makes them ultra-soft and bakery-style.
